Plascii Petsma by Cruzer/Camelot has one of the nicest looking plasma effects I've seen for the C64. Since he included the source code, I was able to port it to the Z80 and TMS9918. On top of the features in the original C64 version, I have...

An article recently published on MOONGIFT, a Japanese developer site, has showcased RasDash! The article is entirely in Japanese and Google Translate won't accept the URL as it has special characters but YANDEX does. Below are some links and a basic...
Building a CP/M System Disk To avoid rewriting the assembler codes for ccp, bdos and cbios so that they can co-exist in the same file. I can append the i8hex files and remove the "end of file markers". To make the hex file more readable I have changed...
How It Works Brief Summary I started with a well-known disassembly of Combat (by Harry Dodgson, later improved by Nick Bensema and Roger Williams). To this, I added a K-nearest neighbor algorithm that uses examples from a training dataset to make a...
sub_F374 has caught my interest because it seems to be painting the LCD with the currently selected file's contents according to several state variables that I have not fully reverse-engineered.The routine begins like this:F374 sub_F374: F374 BD F6 18...
The STM32 board was just a hair bigger than the PIC, but the biggest pieces are still the power switch, channel button, & battery. The plan is just to print an L enclosure which scotch tapes around the hot shoe & sticks up. The antenna will...
In the arduino code set your WiFi credentials char wifissid[] = "ENTER YOUR WiFi SSID HERE"; char wifipass[] = "ENTER YOUR WiFi PASSWORD HERE"; Normally, the signal strength is displayed in dBm. But for a non techie person, the signal strength in terms...

A laptop keyboard is a diode-less key matrix. Its keys are distributed in a way that you can press the most important key combinations at once, despite the lack of diodes - to the point where some rows only contain one or two keys. Often, there's also...
